Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-3y=6

-3y = -2x + 6

y = -2x/-3 + 6/ -3

y = 2x/3 - 2 {y =mx + c}

slope = 2/3

The required line's slope is also 2/3 as it is parallel to this line

Point(9, -3)

y -y1 = m(x-x1)

y - (-3) = 2/3 (x - 9)

y + 3 = 2x/3 - 2*9/3

y + 3 =2x/3 - 2*3

y + 3 = 2x/3 -6

y = 2x/3 - 6 - 3

y = 2x/3 - 9

Wendy is creating a large soup based on a recipe. Her recipe calls for of a pint of milk, but she only has of a pint of milk, so

xeze [42]

Answer:

She can only make 5/6 of her recipe with the amount of milk that she has.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some data of this problem is missing, the data missing is:

Her recipe calls for 3/4 of a pint of milk and she only has 5/8 of a pint of milk.

Now, to know what's the portion she can do with that amount we need to divide the amount of milk she has by the total amount she needs:

$\frac{5}{8}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{4}$

When we divide we turn the second fraction upside down (the numerator becomes the denominator and viceversa) and multiply, thus:

$\frac{5}{8}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{4}=\frac{5}{8}$ × $\frac{4}{3} =\frac{20}{24}$

If we simplify this last expression we have:

$\frac{20}{24}=\frac{10}{12} =\frac{5}{6}$

Thus, she can only make 5/6 of her recipe with the amount of milk that she has.

<em>Note: In case the data missing is different, you can apply this same procedure with the fractions you have. </em>

A college has an acceptance rate of 17%. If 3,240 students apply, about

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

550

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know that 17% of everyone who applies (3,240) will be accepted.

0.17*3,240= 550.8

550 students will be accepted

we have to round down as only 17% can be accepted and u cant have 0.8th of a person

hope this helps

Which question is equivalent to 5+n

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

the answer would be n+5

Step-by-step explanation:

5n is the same as saying 5 multiplied by n

n +5 would equal the same number

for example if n=2 then 5+2=7

and if we used n+5 it would be 2+5=7

and if you plugin n=2 for all the equations the only correct one is N+5
